Fukuoka “PARCO” is a department store located in Tenjin which is the biggest entertainment district in Fukuoka. You will find “Kiwamiya” in the basement floor of PARCO. Their signature dish is a hamburger steak.
Locals and visitors from outside the country come all the way here to eat. It’s always busy with hungry customers.

※Restaurant name in Japanese:極味や

The reason for the popularity is the taste and cost performance!
You can dine on Imari beef, a brand of beef from Saga prefecture, for a surprisingly reasonable price. Saga prefecture is right next to Fukuoka prefecture.

They are famous for their DIY bbq concept. The hamburger steak comes on a hot plate while it’s still raw.
It’s so fresh, look at the colour of the meat!

If you don’t want to line up, go before they even open.
There is a Hakata branch near Hakata station and yes, there is a big line up there as well!
But I’ll tell you it’s worth the wait, I will definitely come again!
